    Poker? The Gentle Person's Game

    I downloaded the PokerTH but couldn't figure out how it worked, which was annoying. The idea is to play for free and I think it's best to play on a quality platform with good software. I don't know what the advantage of open source is. I played online for many years and I find it most enjoyable...

    Poker? The Gentle Person's Game

    I looked it up and apparently Americas Cardroom has the nicest looking software. If we can get at least 4 people to play I think it will be fun.

    Fortunately I am not looking for a romantic relationship.

    My life is so empty that I can't really imagine going on a date and having to talk around it. Before I got this job I have, I was unemployed and feeling hopeless. I just wanted to be a regular guy with a job, then I could date and make some friends. Well, I got the job and now I don't want to...

    Do you find sleeping hard? If so, what helps you?

    There's a new drug out for sleep called Quviviq. I might try to get some. I function so much better on 7+ hours than 5-6.

    Do you find sleeping hard? If so, what helps you?

    I've been taking these sleep patches called Deeps. They seem to work, but not every time. I get to sleep easily but always wake up early. Then I'm at 50% all day long and never get anything done.

    40 years old, and I feel my talking skills need upgrading

    If I was in your situation, I'd probably be very nervous, because I don't meet women too often. One opportunity would mean a lot to me and I would probably find myself planning the exact words I would say the next time I saw her. I think it's good you just walked by last time, but still greeted...

    40 years old, and I feel my talking skills need upgrading

    It's better to talk to her without asking questions. Questions are easy conversation starters but when talking to a woman it gives away your motive, which is to get to know her better. You have to find a way to just talk naturally. Since she's shy, you can just start talking about whatever. For...

    Guys, does anyone have a hard time having leisure

    I have a problem with this too. I don't really feel like doing much of anything. All I want to do is shut my brain off because as soon as I wake up in the morning, I start worrying about my life and the future. I think a lot about the loneliness and how difficult it is to cure it. I'm able to...

    Poker? The Gentle Person's Game

    I setup an account for this site. But I think you need to be a computer geek to understand it. I tried playing a few hands and I can't tap my actions but instead have to press on my laptop, which is annoying. I tried setting up a game but it's unclear how to provide an address to have others...

    where was the farthest

    I'd like to travel, but doing it alone isn't appealing to me. I would probably walk around the city, look around at the people and things, and then realize that the city is like any other city and want to go home. I'd also have to find places to eat by myself and won't get to eat at the nice...

    food or drink you dislike ?

    Ever since I was little, I've eaten artichokes raw, dipped in vinaigrette. The large artichokes are better cooked and dipped in drawn butter or vinaigrette. But the mid size and smaller ones are very good raw. When done eating the leaves you trim the bitter green stuff off the heart, and remove...

    Nicotine gums always makes my stomach sick

    I vape. It's like a security blanket for me. I can't really live without it. My doctor says I should quit because no one knows how bad it is for you. But it doesn't impact my breathing and doesn't feel unhealthy the way smoking did. So I take my chances. I'm just alone all the time and feel this...

    I am an oddball, but what's this thing about 'cheating?'

    From what it sounds like, you are in a kind of marriage where your wife probably wouldn't really care if you went out and met someone else. It happens in other cultures, like France, where it's not uncommon for the man to have a mistress. Certainly if I were in your position, I wouldn't hesitate...

    I think i finally figured out a way to stay a bit happy !!!!

    I've never watched this. It's good? I'm always looking for something to watch, to distract me from my loneliness. It's so hard, because I feel like I've seen everything that's good. I don't like the feeling of watching television just to pass the time, with something that's only half decent...

    Does loneliness also makes anyone feels insane ?

    I watched a few videos today with John Cacioppo. He died a few years ago but was an expert on loneliness. He was a scientist, not a psychologist. For someone like me who is stuck is this cycle of depression and loneliness, I wasn't very happy with what I learned. But I would suggest that...

    Anybody ever surf the dark web?

    Eleven years ago I used to get drugs shipped to me from all over the country and sometimes internationally using the dark web. I wish I'd just kept the bitcoins instead of buying drugs. The year Silk Road launched, bitcoin was just $4.
